Yield 8 skins

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 medium sweet potatoes
1 pinch salt & freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons melted butter
8 ounces brie cheese, with rind removed
1 cup candied walnuts or 1 cup candied pecans, chopped
fresh chives

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Roast potatoes in the oven for 30-45 minutes until they are fully cooked, but not very soft; cool.
  • Halve potatoes and scoop out as much flesh as you can without tearing outer skin. Reserve the inside flesh for another use.
  • Brush cavities of the potato skins with butter, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Heat oven to Broil.
  • Broil the seasoned skins for 5-10 minutes, until they crisp up, being careful not to burn.
  • Top hot skins with 1 ounce of brie (without rind) and some of the chopped nuts.
  • Return to broiler for a few minutes to allow cheese to soften and get hot.
  • Garnish with fresh chives if desired, and serve.
